Written Assignments

Clearly written homeworks are much easier to grade and provide feedback on, and so we encourage students to type their assignments, but this is not a requirement. You will receive one (1) bonus point for submitting a typed written assignment (e.g. LaTeX, Microsoft Word). You may alternatively scan (to a pdf) handwritten assignments: handwritten assignments will not receive the bonus point.

Collaboration Policy

For collaboration policy and things to keep in mind regarding academic misconduct please see the information here.

GradeScope

We will use GradeScope for grading written problems. To sign up for our class, follow the instructions below:

• Go to https://gradescope.com/.
• Click “Sign up for free” and select “I am a student”.
• Sign in with your Stanford SUNet id email account.
• Use Entry code: 9ZRKJ3.

If you have any questions, please reach out on Piazza.

Programming Assignments

All assignments (homework problems and project milestones) must be submitted using the submit script by 11:00 PM (23:00). Please note that the submission script only works on rice (rice.stanford.edu). To submit your assignment, please follow the instructions below:

• Zip your assignment by running the following command in your assignment folder:
  
  • make submit


• Copy your submission files (usually <assignment ID>.zip) to rice.stanford.edu. You can use a graphical interface (SecureFX, FileZilla, Fugu) or the following command:
  
  • scp <your submission file(s)> <your SUNetID> @rice.stanford.edu:


• Login to rice.stanford.edu:
  • ssh <your SUNetID> @rice.stanford.edu


• For Windows, you can use SecureCRT, PuTTY, or Cygwin. Make sure you use the binary transfer mode, as the ASCII transfer mode will damage PDF files!


• Under the directory where your zip file is located, type:
  • /afs/ir.stanford.edu/class/cs234/submit

You are allowed to submit an assignment a maximum of ten (10) times. Each submission will replace the previous.

Since other submission methods are not accepted (such as email), it is important to check early on that you can use the submit script. Please try this out early and do not try this for the first time at the deadline. If you are having trouble or something goes wrong, please reach out on Piazza or ask a CA. Do not send us your submission via email. We give partial credit and so partial work is better than not submitting anything. We will automatically sanity check your code in some basic test cases, but we may grade your code on additional test cases. It is important to rigorously check your code yourself.
